Ah nice one, I remember doing that, most were quite good to work with
but Aeda Brightdawn (the warlock) is a nightmare - I can't remember
your faction but if you're Alliance, you're lucky, you get a lovely
pally tank bodyguard instead. The warlock is Horde's "tank" - she is
fantastic at holding aggro, certainly, unfortunately she's rather good
at grabbing aoe aggro from *everything* around, whether it be tagged
by me or not, and then dying. I basically had to set her as my focus
and heal her most the time, was so relieved when I finally reached
exalted and could get rid of her :-P

I never remember to use those, although they're certainly pretty nice,
especially the summon one. I normally use Talonpriest Ishaal for
normal play, just because he's ranged and so doesn't tend to stand in
silly places that aggro extra mobs, plus he is single target ranged
not aoe, unlike that warlock! Really wish I could get the Alliance
pally; I had her on the beta and she was great. I need to lvl an
Alliance alt sometime soon, still haven't got round to that :-)

Hehe yeah, I do that with my 91's and my 93... the 95 actually did
make it to 100 in time for valentine's because I wanted an extra shot
at the boss kills! The more I look at Legion and class specific
things, the more I want to get some more alts to 100 though, I'm
liking the idea of actual questlines which are different depending on
your class, nice to get some variety rather than each alt doing the
same old same old.
